Alexander is just finishing up my birthday card. It's mostly all I want from him; just that, and a little bit of time.
After throwing around some ideas for dinner, we settle on our favorite sandwich from Agata (prosciutto, mozzarella, arugula and avocado) and fries from Burger-Fi (I have no idea about their burgers but their fries are amazing and their orders huge).
Then we engage in a favorite pastime, watching Law & Order SVU over dinner. It may sound like a passive activity but it's not. The show always raises some kind of issue and we typically end up in a spirited discussion about it. The 60-minute run time usually takes us twice that to get through.
Alexander meets up with some friends later on in the night. When he gets in, I awake briefly to ask,"Breakfast tomorrow?" "Definitely," my son responds.
I'm up early this morning. I go out and buy lox, cream cheese and bagels. Around 10 Alexander gets up. But he's not ready for breakfast. He has to shower, go out and buy a razor, and blah blah blah. I eat without him. Kiss him good-bye, and leave for work.
My time with my son is minimal, but I'll take whatever I can get.
